Charlie Morton Placed on the DL

Hi everybody,

Phillies starting pitcher Charlie Morton was placed on the 15-day DL (Disabled List) with a left hamstring strain earlier today. Morton received the injury during last night's game (April 23rd) against the Milwaukee Brewers in the top of the 2nd inning while running to first base on a bunt attempt. Adam Morgan is expected to be called up from Triple A to take Morton's place in the starting rotation.
